Christmas Day!

I am SO behind on blogging. Instead of going back and trying to catch up, I'll start with now...and go back when I can. It's a good plan...I think.

Christmas Day!

I love everything about Christmas...the excitement, the anticipation, the giving, the receiving, being with family, and reflecting on our Savior's birth! Such a wonderful time of the year. 

We always make the kids take a few pics before going downstairs...I love their excitement!

And Santa did not disappoint! 

The girls and I are heading to Justin Bieber's concert January 5th...they were so excited...I might be just as excited as they are!

Caiser always does a great job with surprising me...this year was so great. He had a blanket made for me, because I'm always freezing, I love it!

Not too bad...

My family came over around 12:30 for presents, play time, and FOOD!

The girls were SO excited, they got vanities for their rooms from grandma & grandpa.

And this is how we ended the day...movies, cuddling on the couch, and snoozing!

A perfect day!

A Lovely Christmas Eve!

We had a lovely Christmas Eve...

It's tradition to do lunch with my family...so off to Rock Creek Pizza, yum!

I can't even begin to describe how great it is to have these 2 home for the holiday's..the BEST!

Then off to the Hogan's for dinner, presents, and fun family time!

Random December Fun...

Nothing says "lets get December started" like Santa in the grocery store...awesome!

Bust out the advent calendars!

Maybe we taught our kids how to play craps...it's fine!

Went to a small production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat. It was great!

Celebrated this guys birthday...love him!

Drank hot chocolate almost every day after school...and chips n salsa!

Took super cool pictures at our ward party.

This kid lost ANOTHER tooth!

Watched a lot of movies while vegging on the couch!

Lunch with my favorite ladies...and Presto.

Saw the Hobbit...we liked!

Ate at chick a few times...but the best was with our "chick BFF's"

Had a few lunch dates with this stud...

I'm the room mom for Jack's class, it's awesome (kind of).

We visited City Creek as much as possible...love that place!

And finally...the kids in their Christmas church clothes.

December has been awesome!
